Pay it Forward and You're a Gorgeous Genius too!

Pay it forward. When you get an amazing boost, you've got to pass it on. That's why I have to tell you about Lisa Sonora Beam, an extra-ordinary Creative Gorgeous Genius!

Two years ago, I picked up a book called, "The Creative Entrepreneur, A DIY Visual Guidebook for Making Business Ideas Real" by Lisa Sonora Beam. Driving home from LAX one day I was so eager to start it, I stopped at a Starbucks along the way. Her melding of creativity and business savy (she's a distinguished visual artist and holds an MBA!) connected my brain with my art. I followed the workbook, which guides creative types in creating a business plan. A mandala was birthed, ideas began to grow, phone calls were made. Doodlebugheart began to breathe.

I begged my husband to gift me with the Gorgeous Genius reTreat in Puerto Vallarta with Lisa. My world exploded! Creative people from all over shared, learned, questioned, and crafted. The people I met that week in Puerto Vallarta -- those Gorgeous Geniuses -- influence my life to this day. Especially Lisa.
